Abstract

We examine a relevance between characteristic of crystal field structures and heavily renormalized quasiparticle states in the f0f1f2 Anderson lattice model. Using a slave-boson mean-field approximation, we find that for f2 configurations two or three quasiparticle bands are formed near the Fermi level depending on the number of the relevant f1 orbitals in the f2 crystal field ground state. The inter-orbital correlations characterizing the crystal field ground state closely reflect in inter-band residual interactions among quasiparticles. Particularly in the case of a singlet crystal field ground state, resulting residual antiferromagnetic exchange interactions among the quasiparticles lead to an anomalous suppression of the quasiparticle contribution of the spin susceptibility, even though the quasiparticle mass is strongly enhanced.
